Parklets—what are they? If you had asked PL staff a few months ago we wouldn't have had a very good answer. We've come a long way since then and even implemented the first phase of our very own People's Parklet™. This installation is geared toward activating our 800 sq.ft storefront, but we're also interested in your feedback! We know Cincinnati residents are just as passionate about the community as we are and that you've got big ideas of your own. Now is your chance to stop staring and start sharing by picking up a prompt, filling out a card, and laying it on us. Don't be shy. This parklet isn't just for us, it's for The People...
These signs are 100% interactive and thought-provoking. We provide the blank cards, you provide the wisdom. Not all the questions are head-scratchers. Some of them simply encourage conversation and fun with others. That's the beauty of this project, public engagement. Let's face it—parking spaces belong to Cincinnati's residents and we should have a say in what goes on there!
This installation is only part of phase one. We've got much bigger plans for our storefront parking spaces, but we want to hear from you first! What would you like to see in this public space? What makes our city great? Stop by and let us know. PL is listening so let your voice be heard!
